– Barcelona comes after a 4-0 success achieved at home in his duel match against Granada. The hosts of this meeting still remain in second place in the hierarchy, but noted that they have played a game less than the rest of the teams. The band “blaugrana” recently encountered some problems, and in the last five games of the championship failed to impose only twice. The Catalans are accustomed to offer their fans a great show, so that they have a series of nine consecutive clashes that have scored at least two goals. Further Messi, Neymar and Suarez do their job excellently in the attack, the three managed to score no less than 39 times in the current championship. In addition to those three, there is no other player from the host to be scored more than one goal.
– Athletic were defeated by Sevilla in the previous round 2-0 and thus went down in eighth place in the hierarchy. The team coached by Ernesto Valverde has departed considerably from places that provide presence in the Champions League, so that now appear to be justified only to dream the other European competition. I was impressed by the evolution of Basque disputed double games against Villarreal, they managed to qualify on the Copa del Rey after winning both encounters played. Bilbao at first glance appears to be a group capable of causing problems even when not playing at home, but until the moment she received only three successes traveling. It should be noted that four of the previous five games that took place away from home ended with under 2.5 goals.
As says Luis Enrique, the hosts have not yet forgotten the failure of the Super Cup and are keen to take revenge on the Camp Nou. Barcelona is in good shape, playing well enough at home and the opponent was not too impressed journeys he has made in the current edition of Primera Division. The Catalans dominated the direct and Chapter meetings, and now I expect the difference in value to say. I think Barca will have no trouble in getting past his defender, and I believe that eventually will break both the halftime advantage, and at the end.
